Sure but depending on your choices you could also have an orgy with Zevran, Leliana, and Isabela or you and Alistair could spitroast Isabela. Dwarf noble can bang two chicks at once during his background quest, mage background can fuck a desire demon later on in Redcliffe. Back then it was just tons of crazy options available to you, nothing was forced on you like it is now.

I should have done this with some of my mom's Youtube subscriptions a year ago. She started getting into a lot of political hate-monger channels that give her one side of the story and leave out most of the actual details/information, then proceeded to become insufferably partisan over the months and now her brothers can't even have a conversation with her.

All that could have been avoided if I'd just gone on her account and blocked all the MeidasTouch / Dave Pakman type stuff. I also didn't realize what was going on until a couple months into it when her personality changed and every time I dropped by she had one of those channels droning on the TV.

Shoulda blocked them and promoted some nature videos or something. I actually did try at one point to quietly unsub her from all the political stuff (and felt pretty low/sneaky in the process) and she actually got a lot nicer / more balanced for about a week before, evidently, everything was right back the way it was.

Youtube doesn't actually keep these things away permanently, it'll trickle them back in to see if the person clicks. In other words partisanship is a bit like drugs, the person has to want to get off of it.

It's also based off your watch history, I watched one video on how to repair my dryer and that's all my feed was. Their algorithm sucks! I often go into my watch history after watching a video and delete it so it doesn't affect what I get on my home page.

I think when they first introduced romance in games, you had to initiate the romance so gay stuff was easy to ignore as you just had to basically ignore the romance option of same sex characters, now NPC are initiating the romance so you can't avoid it, and have to actively reject them.

Zevran was pretty forward as I recall, but it fit with his character, and you basically just needed to tell him to chill once, and he backed off permanently.

My dad played a hairy male dwarf in DA:O and romanced Zevran and kept sending me pics of the sex scene.

Zevran was also a pretty funny/endearing character despite being an absolute man-whore. I would have gladly fed Fenris from DA2 through a wood chipper.

What's the best game to play on PS5? I've had mine for 2 years and all I have is GoW, and MK and some free games like Apex. Been wanting to try Black Myth, or Ghost of Tsushima but I really want good Final Fantasy game.

I prefer the BG3 solution where you can just kill them all.

If you have PS+ (the best tier) you get GoT directors cut for free. That's an amazing game, not played the DC version myself, but got platinum of the original release.

FF7 Rebirth is really good. If you haven't played Remake as well, that's 180ish hours of gaming. Rebirth is a big upgrade to Remake, but being able to play Remake then go right into Rebirth with no waiting is nice.

EDIT: as to this game, my guess is that the skill up review is the most accurate one.

From reviews it sounds like 7 rebirth is much much better than 16. I really don't want to play Cloud and them again but sounds like it will be that way. I guess playing Vincent is nice, him and Squall were 2 of my favorite characters for some reason. Time to DL I guess, maybe get Balders Gate while I'm at it

Lifelong FF fan and I found 16 a very pretty game with a decent story (at least in the beginning) but the gameplay was devils may cry. I hate it.

FF7 Rebirth I truly believe is their best take on action combat while still keeping turn based elements. Also they did a good job on world building. Remake is good for the story, the gameplay is a step down from rebirth though. Remake is a bit more linear whereas rebirth is open world kinda.

Tifas tits are massive.

Yeah I've always been of the opinion that it's most posters here. They're always consuming something and then spitting it back out as their own opinion.

News flash, regular dudes, who make up the vast majority of video game consumers, don't like fags, trans, or insufferable girl bosses. And don't want to play video games or watch TV shows with that kind of representation.

Maybe you have a point if I count my team reading mein kampf. No opinion is ever formed completely in a vaccuum. That said, hating fags and not wanting to play as some retarded looking troon is a pretty universal opinion when it even disgusts babies fresh out of the womb. You don't really need any formative input to reach that conclusion.
